Congress authorized ORR to provide resettlement assistance and other
benefits available to refugees to specific Afghan populations in
response to their emergency evacuation and resettlement. The OAW Afghan
Supplement Survey is a sample survey of Afghan households entering the
United States under OAW, collecting both household- and individual-
level information. It will generate nationally representative data on
OAW Afghans' well-being, integration outcomes, and progress towards
self-sufficiency. Data collected will help ORR and service providers
better understand the impact of services and on-going service needs of
OAW Afghan populations.
Respondents: OAW Afghan populations.
